If your phone is still locked and you want to change carrier or you have just touched down in Sydney and need your phone unlocking from an overseas carrier, contact a member of our team today. Unlocks can be completed remotely so you can hold onto your device during the process.

Alternatively, if your Android or IOS device is locked with a passcode or Google account that you no longer have access to. We can bypass the lock code, reinstall the software and get your phone fully operational again.

What is Android Factory Reset Protection (FRP Lock)?

Android phones have integrated features to protect the data stored inside. The FRP security feature is automatically activated when you setup a Google account on your Android phone. If your device has been registered as lost or stolen, and has been Factory Data Reset, this will initiate the FRP lock.

Your iPhone is locked with an Apple iCloud ID, Username & Password, can this be removed?

If your iPhone is locked with an Apple iCloud/iTunes account that you don’y know or cannot remember, then you have a real problem. Even if you preform a full factory reset you will still needs to insert the iCloud ID at the end of the activation period. Without the account details that were last synced with the device, you will not be able to use the iPhone.

F.A.Q

  • Is changing IMEI numbers illegal?

    Yes! We will not do this for anyone as the mobile phone may be stolen or lost.

  • Is unlocking illegal?

    No, it is a common misconception that unlocking your mobile phone is illegal. In fact quite the opposite, it is your consumer right to have your handset unlocked.

    The mobile phone network companies must provide you with an unlock code if you request it – but they normally will consume a large amount of your time during the request process (they often will keep you on hold for hours at one of their fabulous out-sourced call-centres in India or the The Phillipines), charge you for the privilege, and then may insist you pay for all monthly rental in advance for the remainder of your contract.

  • Can all mobile phones be unlocked?

    No. About 20 to 30% of mobile phone unlocks we attempt won’t be possible. If this is the case you will be refunded the fee. (Note in cases where your phone is network barred then unlocking won’t work – in this case there is no fee refund – the onus is on you to tell us if you suspect the mobile phone is a lost or stolen handset PRIOR to booking an unlocking service and we will generally not provide the service in such cases). We also do not provide a refund if you provide us with the wrong IMEI number for your phone!

  • How long does the unlock service take?

    For most Australian Carriers your unlock code will be ready in 1-3 business days. For International Carriers it varies from 1 to 10 business days. Please be careful buying from unknown unlocking websites on the internet as many of them will take your fee and then just won’t get back to you for months despite claiming they offer an instant service – we speak to many people who have been frustrated by this each and every day.

  • How do i pay for the unlock service?

    Fone Fix will receive your unlocking fee payment over the phone via credit card (no records are ever kept of your credit card number).

  • How much does unlocking my phone cost?

    Fone Fix’s mobile phone Unlocking fee prices range from $80 AUD to $200 AUD depending on your mobile phone network and country or origin.

  • Do you need my phone to unlock it?
    We can unlock most devices remotely but will need to have received cleared funds before the unlock can be processed.
  • Can you remove FRP locks, Google Accounts and bypass Apple iTunes Passcodes?
    In most instances yes, we can even remove FRP (Factory Reset Protection) locks and Android devices that are synced with a Google account. The success rates depends on the model, the version of operating system and the availability of the software that assists in the bypass. This unlocking process is complex and time consuming, normally taking up to and sometimes over 1 week to process. Unfortunately there is still no solution to bypass an Apple iCloud /iTunesID and password. If you need to remove these security locks, please contact a member of our team to discuss your options.
